This web-based banner creator site just opened today but I've been playing around with it for about a week now as a beta tester. It's pretty kool. It's free but you have to signup to get access to the tools.

I have PhotoShop CS2 but still trying to learn to use it better. So this site has been very helpful to me as I make up my headers and banners for a couple of niche sites I'm opening in the beginning of next year. It's simple to use. You just have to play with it a bit.

Just want to point out some things about this site, though.

The "free" is limited to a certain extent but you can STILL do alot of different types of banners, headers and such. And you can upload 10 templstes of your own to use. They host all your graphics too.

So, you will get a OTO (one time offer) popping up. It's a good offer BUT unless you're gonna be using it regularly, it might not be worth it to you.

But, they have a monthly upgrade that is worth it if you plan to create ALOT of different banners. You can upload more of your own templates to use and you get alot more templates & clipart to use. Plus you can do animated banners.

BUT once again, the "free" access is still pretty slick to use.

I've just been using the free version since I'm just making simple banners and headers anyway. Better quality than the other "free" online banner makers out there that I've tried in the past.
